Some of the reviews at Costco are concerning, so buying this refurb from Woot is going to be a bit of a lottery since this is not a manufacturer refurbished product.
If you're comfortable with computers it's very easy to do. The display is gorgeous and the anti-reflective coating is a big improvement over earlier years.

For a while we have been conditioned to think that heavy means premium and high quality, especially on the smartphone world where reviewers are obsessed with heaviness which led to phones backs being made out of stupid fragile glass. Even the iPhone Pro models are made with a stainless steel frame instead of aluminum for no other reason than to add weight. Personally I can't even use the iPhone Pro models because the weight cramps my hand with extended use.
I'm glad that LG decided to buck the trend and just make the gram thinner and lighter. This is the lightest 17" laptop by a very wide margin and if you're looking for portable big screen productivity for office, school, or coding there's basically nothing that even comes close. This has the same weight as most other manufacturers 13" or 14" laptops.
I literally just bought the 16 GB from Costco but now I think I'm going to return it and get the 32 GB.

Given Costco's generous return policy, many of these laptops were probably bought on impulse to secure the black friday price and returned within the 90-day return period when the buyer decided they did not really want it.
Do you recommend a good paste for this operation?
Were you able to reattach the rubber feet in a satisfactory way after removing them to get to the screws? I would not trust them to stay on after prying them off.
Thanks!

Rubber feet reattached no problem, I've had my eight months and it hasn't budged. I think the screws are different sizes so just keep an eye out for that. Then it's just a matter of carefully prying around the edges to release the clips (not difficult, just a matter of being careful so you don't break them). From there it's a few screws to lift the heat sink to re-paste. Any quality thermal paste will do, some will go crazy and use Liquid Metal but I didn't think the risk was worth the marginal gain in performance. The black tape cover the vent is pretty obvious and easy to remove.

4k is less important to me than the best picture quality for video content, and I'd actually prefer 16x9 over this 16x10.
Anyone have any ideas?
